Becker’s Hospital Review Cites ThedaCare’s President and CEO
Dean Gruner, MD, CEO and president of ThedaCare, is among the nation’s top 100 physician leaders of hospitals and health systems, according to a new report from Becker’s Hospital Review.
Becker’s bases the rankings on experience, previous awards and commitment to quality. Peers usually nominate the presidents and CEOs and industry leaders vet the list.
A family medicine physician, Dr. Gruner has been ThedaCare’s leader since 2008. Before that, he was the system’s senior vice president and chief medical officer.
Other Wisconsin leaders joining Dr. Gruner on the list include Gunderson Lutheran CEO Jeffrey Thompson, MD, and Aurora Health Care President and CEO Nick Turkal, MD.
